It is permissible for a woman to give gifts to somebody other than her husband and to free her slaves in the lifetime of her husband provided that she is not weak-minded. If she is weak-minded, then it is not permissible.

2590. Narrated Asmā' رضي الله عنها: Once I said, "O Allāh's Messenger! I have no property except what has been given to me by Az-Zubair (i.e., her husband). May I give in charity?" The Prophet ﷺ said, "Give in charity and do not withhold it (i.e., wealth) otherwise Allāh withhold it from you."

Arabic text

2590 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ، عَنْ عَبَّادِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ أَسْمَاءَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا، قَالَتْ: قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا لِيَ مَالٌ إِلَّا مَا أَدْخَلَ عَلَيَّ الزُّبَيْرُ، فَأَتَصَدَّقُ؟ قَالَ: «تَصَدَّقِي، وَلاَ تُوعِي فَيُوعَى عَلَيْكِ»
